Citibank Sues Ed McMahon

LOS ANGELES (AP) ― Court records show Citibank is suing Ed McMahon, seeking to recoup nearly $200,000 lent to the financially strapped Hollywood icon.

First reported by the entertainment news Web site CelebTV.com, documents show Citibank filed the lawsuit against McMahon in Los Angeles on June 9th. The bank's suit seeks nearly $180,000 in damages as well as attorney's fees.

The former "Tonight Show" sidekick and "Star Search" host has faced mounting money problems since it was revealed earlier this month that he was $644,000 behind on payments on his Beverly Hills home. The lender, Countrywide Financial, filed a default notice on the home in late February.

McMahon's publicist says McMahon and his wife have not yet been served with the lawsuit and will not comment on their personal finances.
